I'm just trying to get my life and house organized before school hits hard for everyone in our house next Monday. I do have lots of ideas for posts, and lots of pictures to post. My procrastination may lead to lots of posts in the coming months, or it could still be quiet around here. It's too soon to tell. Don't give up on me yet!

My goal as of now is to treat nursing school like a full-time job. I am going to try to get all of my schoolwork done between 8-5 so that evenings can be dedicated to the family. We won't know our final class schedule until the first day of school, and won't follow it until after about three weeks of school, so some things are still up in the air. Zach has after-school care taken care of for now, but if it will be possible to cut out that expense, we will try.

Zoe will probably spend much more time at her day care than she did last year, since she has become Destructo Girl in the last few weeks. Every day she discovers something new to get into. Today, it was my silverware in my china cabinet. She amused herself for a very long time by bringing me one spoon at a time. Every few minutes, I would take the spoons back to the drawer, tell her no, and slam it. That didn't deter her. She also found Darren's wallet in the desk that we use as an entry table and catch-all, and proceeded to rearrange its contents. Like I've said before, she's lucky she's so cute!

I am trying to get back into a more normal sleep schedule, and have cut out caffeine in the evenings. Tonight, it seems to be working, as I am getting very tired. More later...
